Best Filesystem for NAS?

Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 37 points – 9 months ago

A year ago I set up Ubuntu server with 3 ZFS pools on my server, normally I don't make copies of very large files but today I was making a copy of a ~30GB directory and I saw in rsync that the transfer doesn't exceed 3mb/s (cp is also very slow).

What is the best file system that "just works"? I'm thinking of migrating everything to ext4

EDIT: I really like the automatic pool recovery feature in ZFS, has saved me from 1 hard drive failure so far

Oh i didn't know that. RHEL 9 also uses it as defalut. Propably some forks of it aswell. Rocky, Alma?

Oh i mixed it up with ZFS. I think ZFS uses no one by default.

ZFS is default on Proxmox
